Use curly brackets instead of parenthesis. That should solve the problem.

Subject: fileset
so in fileset you can do:
<copy todir="${deploy.home)/classes">
<fileset dir="build" />
</copy>
but you can not seemingly do:
<copy todir="${deploy.home)/classes">
<fileset dir="$(build.home)" />
</copy>
where:
<property name="deploy.home" value="../foo/bar/baz" />
<property name="build.home" value="../../foo/bar/baz" />
instead of getting the value of the property you get:
BUILD FAILED
<path>(build.home) not found
this is a bug right?
if the fileset can't take a variable as the value to the dir
attribute then you are hard coding locations in your buildfile. BAD BAD
BAD
